Very tasty pies. I decided to make pies stuffed with fried potatoes according to this recipe. First, I kneaded the dough with dry yeast and added the flour gradually as recommended by the author. I still left the dough to be used. Although the author writes that you can sculpt right away. But I got busy with the filling. I boiled the potatoes and added milk instead of cream. I didn’t put any greens into the filling, just sautéed onions. I made pies with potatoes. The dough is very obedient and pliable. It was a pleasure to shape the pies. Then I fried the pies in odorless oil on both sides until golden brown. My pies came out great. They are soft and fragrant. There are plenty of fillings, the dough is very tasty. Simple ingredients make wonderful fried pies. Great recipe! Many thanks to the author!

A wonderful recipe, the dough is crispy on the outside and soft mashed potatoes on the inside. According to the recipe, I got 12 medium pies, but I rolled them out very thin. The dough is excellent, does not stick, splits very easily and does not tear, although I let the dough sit for about half an hour, it rose a little
